She gets out of bed
Brushes her teeth
Rubs her eyes
And makes herself neat

She looks in the mirror
20 years gone
Fights back the tears now
No time to bemoan

And she still finds a reason… to live
She still finds a way… to feel happy inside
And she still seeks to find…a better life
That’s because…she’s a beacon…of light

She heads off to work
Worried about the kids
Feels overwhelmed
But decides to get rid

Kids are all grown
That’s good to know
But what’s most important now
It’s time for me to grow

And she still finds a reason… to live
She still finds a way… to feel happy inside
And she still seeks to find…a better life
That’s because…she’s a beacon…of light

Woo hoo hoo…Woo… hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo
Woo hoo hoo…Woo… hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo

And she still finds a reason… to live
She still finds a way… to feel happy inside
And she still seeks to find…a better life
That’s because…she’s a beacon…of light
